"At the Williamsburg diner, pastry chef Jackie Carnesi continues her monthlong Sweet Friends collaboration series with a holiday Filipino peppermint baked Alaska created with James Beard Award–winner Abi Balingit—built from chocolate bibingka, candy cane ice cream, and torched meringue—folding Balingit into a lineup of guest pastry chefs creating limited-run sweets for the diner; alongside the baked Alaska, the diner is also selling signed copies of her cookbook, Mayumu: Filipino American Desserts Remixed." - Melissa McCart
"At Kellogg’s Diner, chef Jackie Carnesi created a passionfruit tajín icebox pie with passionfruit curd, tajín meringue, and lime zest—an example of a nostalgic format reinvented with the fruit’s bright, tangy flavor." - Flora Tsapovsky
"Kellogg’s Diner (open since 1924) has been reborn as a chrome-accented spot with dusty rose tables and Tex-Mex tendencies. The Williamsburg institution still serves eggs, but now you can get them in the form of an omelet with green chile crema. As per the official diner rule book, the menu remains massive, and portions are huge. Stop by for brunch and eat some pancakes, or plan a leisurely dinner with friends and get some enchiladas with a Negroni. Due to the size of the place, getting a table should be easy." - bryan kim, willa moore, will hartman, sonal shah, molly fitzpatrick
"When watery diner eggs won’t do, head to Kellogg’s for guajillo short rib hash, or maybe a piece of fried chicken on a biscuit dripping with honey butter. Besides the zhuzhed up Tex-Mex/Southern dishes sprinkled among the breakfast classics, this glammed-up Williamsburg diner also serves orange wine and cocktails (and fantastic desserts). But the booths are loose and easy enough for your comfiest loungewear." - bryan kim, willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, sonal shah
"Amanda Perdomo (Wildair, Roman’s) made the dessert menu at this revived diner that lean into mid-century nostalgia, including a Hummingbird cake with pineapple jam with candied pecans, an espresso red-eye cake with chicory, flan, and coconut cream pie. But it’s this strawberry pretzel salad that’s the head-turner, a Midwest picnic classic layered with cream cheese and strawberry Jell-O. Her desserts at JR and Son, also from the team down the street, like a rainbow cookie cake, also steal the show." - Melissa McCart
